Development Services
Calpine is helping the nation meet its clean energy goals by developing, constructing, owning and operating natural gas-fired and renewable generation that use advanced technologies to generate power in a low-carbon and environmentally responsible manner. Since 1998, we have developed nearly 30,000 megawatts of generation capacity. This total includes most of the plants that currently make up Calpine’s fleet, in addition to several that were constructed for development partners or subsequently purchased by customers and other companies.
Calpine’s development team continually seeks out and evaluates opportunities in our core markets to grow our business in a fiscally responsible manner that maximizes the value of our fleet for shareholders.
